Summary:

Parkview Elementary is a public elementary school in Garden Grove, California, serving 440 students in grades K-6 and part of the Garden Grove Unified School District. The school consistently performs above state averages in English Language Arts, Mathematics, and Science assessments, with particular strengths in supporting English Language Learners and students from low socioeconomic backgrounds.

Parkview Elementary's academic performance is impressive, with proficiency rates in ELA and Math that exceed the district and state averages. The school's English Language Learners and low-SES students rank among the top performers in California, indicating effective support for these traditionally underserved populations.

While Parkview Elementary outperforms nearby schools within the Garden Grove Unified School District, such as Ocia A. Peters Elementary and Genevieve M. Crosby Elementary, its performance is more mixed when compared to schools outside the district, like Ponderosa Elementary and Stoddard (Alexander J.) Elementary in the Anaheim Elementary School District. Additionally, Parkview Elementary has seen a concerning increase in chronic absenteeism rates, which can negatively impact student learning and academic outcomes.

As you review the school rankings data, please be aware that some of the information from certain demographics is missing. The reason for this omission is that the data has been redacted from the source data itself due to low population samples in these specific demographic groups.

Redacting data from low population samples is a necessary step to ensure the reliability and accuracy of the results, as small sample sizes may not be representative of the broader population. Additionally, this measure helps protect the privacy of individuals belonging to these demographic groups.

About Students eligible for discounted/free lunch:

The National School Lunch Program (NSLP) provides low-cost or free meals to students in U.S. public and nonprofit private schools based on household income. Those with incomes below 130% of the poverty line receive free lunch, while those between 130% and 185% qualify for reduced-price lunch. The percentage of students receiving free or reduced-price lunch serves as a marker for poverty, as it reflects the socioeconomic status of families in a given school or district. A higher FRPL rate typically indicates a higher concentration of low-income families, suggesting that the school or district may face additional challenges in providing adequate resources and support for student success.

About Student-Teacher Ratio

Student/teacher ratio is calculated by dividing the total number of students by the total number of full-time equivalent teachers. Please note that a smaller student/teacher ratio does not necessarily translate to smaller class size. In some instances, schools hire teachers part time, and some teachers are hired for specialized instruction with very small class sizes. These and other factors contribute to the student/teacher ratio. Note: For private schools, Student/teacher ratio may not include Pre-Kindergarten.
